    I can point out some immediate problems:

    1 - I can’t see the cursor, hope this is because of the screenshot tool you’re using, but if it’s too small elderly people may lose it.

    2 - the icons and text on the top panel are light grey… The panel is white, this provides terrible contrast and is yeat another thing elderly people won’t see well

    3 - there are two ways to switch apps, the top panel, and the dock, this is needlessly confusing

    4 - most people (inclusiding elderly) are most accostumed to windows, which you have changed in XFCE I’m favour of looks; if you wish to create something people can use with ease, you better go for the windows look to avoid friction.

    5 - this doesn’t look like a very functional dock, which didn’t you use plank, or crystal dock? That would provide better functionality.

    6 - why did you think gnome 2 was a good base for your project? Gnome 2 might be cool and all, but as all old Linux interfaces it is needlessly complex and quite outdated usability-wise, unless the elderly people you’re talking about are nostalgic Linux veterans they won’t find this cool, intuitive, or otherwise familiar to use, much for the contrary

    Also why are you reposting this?

    My suggestions if you want a smoother transition, repeated ones have Linux versions
